Snapshot: 10 Stellar Selfies by British Celebs

We are living in a selfie-soaked culture: Britain’s Oxford University Press announced “selfie” as the 2013 word of the year. TIME recently featured an auction where the winner would win a selfie with Sirs Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellen. Benedict Cumberbatch took advantage of the newfangled form of communication, auditioning for August: Osage County with a video selfie. Karen Gillan is benefiting from the trend, having signed on to star in ABC’s comedy called Selfie.

Don’t get us wrong, we’re not complaining. These digital self-portraits are highly entertaining and allow us to view some of our favorite British stars through their own lens.

Let’s take a peek at 10 of our favorite Britished up selfies in all their stellarness below:
